He was immediately concerned when he didn’t get noticed by Google on day two. So I told him about reciprocal links and a few other methods of getting noticed by Google.

Google has always used the number of links from websites, and especially sites that have a lot of traffic, to determine a website’s ranking in their index. The principle is similar to credible citations. For instance, you know if a book has good credibility if it is quoted and cited in a lot of other literature. If a book is quoted in the Encyclopedia Britannica, then it probably has more credibility than if it is quoted in a book using a self-publishing service such as Lulu.com.

You can create your own reciprocal links on pages you create on community user sites such as YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook. If you don’t have accounts on these pages, you can easily create them, put up some good content and then use your blog URL as your listed homepage.

In fact, doing a blog on Facebook or MySpace is a shortcut to being indexed. The problem is that you won’t be able to customize as much it or make money from ad links. It’s not really a blog that you own, but a content generator that makes advertising money for these sites. But if you want readers to come to your own blog, you should do something like the following.

Create a YouTube V-Log.

Upload some good videos you made.

Place a link to your website with the “http://” prefix in the description. (YouTube will automatically read it as a live link.)

You can embed your YouTube videos in your blog and also publish links to specific blog entries in your video descriptions on YouTube.

You can do the same thing with Facebook, MySpace and dozens of other sites.

That’s just step one and two. Once I press “publish post” (today is 2/10/2008) we should see how fast Adam’s American Conservatism blog gets indexed by Google.

My next post in the series, I’ll explain again how I’ve occassionally broken into the top 100,000 websites and stayed fairly consistent over the past ten years.

Frank Schaeffer Will You Please Shut Up! (Book)

High Quality Paperback — 200 pages

A Reasonable Response to Christian Postmodernism

Includes a response to the bookChristian Jihadby Colonel V. Doner

The title of this book is a misnomer. In reality, I am not trying to get anyone to shut up, but rather to provoke a discussion. This book is a warning about the philosophy of “Christian postmodernism” and the threat that it poses not only to Christian orthodoxy, but to the peace and prosperity our culture as well. The purpose is to equip the reader with some basic principles that can be used to refute their arguments.

Part 1 is a response to some of the recent writings by Frank Schaeffer, the son of the late Francis Schaeffer. This was originally written as a defense against Frank’s attacks on pro-life street activism – a movement that his father helped bring into being through his books, A Christian Manifesto, How Should We Then Live? and Whatever Happened to the Human Race? These works have impacted literally hundreds of thousands of Christian activists.

Part 2 is a response to Colonel Doner and his book, Christian Jihad: Neo-Fundamentalists and the Polarization of America. Doner was one of the key architects of the Christian Right that emerged in the 1980s, who now represents the disillusionment and defection many Christian activists experienced in the 1990s and 2000s. There is still great hope for America to be reformed according to biblical principles. As a new generation is emerging, it is important to recognize the mistakes that Christian activists have made in the past even while holding to a vision for the future.

Go Stand Speak (DVD)

With “preaching to the lost” being such a basic foundation of Christianity, why do many in the church seem to be apathetic on this issue of preaching in highways and byways of towns and cities?

Is it biblical to stand in the public places of the world and proclaim the gospel, regardless if people want to hear it or not?

Does the Bible really call church pastors, leaders and evangelists to proclaim the gospel in the public square as part of obedience to the Great Commission, or is public preaching something that is outdated and not applicable for our day and age?

Revival, Resistance, Reformation, RevolutionAn Introduction to the Doctrines of Interposition and Nullification

In 1776, a short time after the Declaration of Independence was adopted, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin were assigned to design an official seal for the United States of America. Their proposed motto was Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God. America owes its existence to centuries of Christian political philosophy. Our nation provided a model for liberty copied by nations the world over.

By the 21st century, we need a “Puritan Storm” to sweep away the Hegelian notion that the state is “God walking on earth.” We need revival and reformation in full force to vanquish the problems that plague us as a nation — from government controlled healthcare — to abortion on demand — to same sex “marriage.” This booklet gives a primer on our founders’ Christian idea of government and examines how the doctrine of nullification was woven into the Constitution as a safeguard against federal tyranny. It concludes with the history and theology of civil resistance. A Second American Revolution is coming with the Word of God growing mightily and prevailing! (Acts 19:20).
